The students learned a form of sculpture this past month, Louise Nevelson's Assemblage. Louise Nevelson was an American sculptor known for her monumental, monochromatic, wooden wall pieces and outdoor sculptures. She was born in Russia and spoke Yiddish. Students really enjoyed the 3D aspect of this artist study. Each student was asked to bring to school a container and a pile of knick knacks that may be otherwise thrown out. While waiting for materials to come in, students started with some basic paper sculpture techniques. |
They students went through quite the process to create their assemblages. Once materials were brought in, they needed to arrange them inside their container, paint a few coats and then glue the arrangement down. Each students's assemblage was attached to the rest to form one piece, ready for St. Patrick's Day. Come check out the bulletin outside the office!
